To Eat or Not to Eat: That is the Question!

It’s your wedding day and with all the nerves shooting through your system, you don’t feel like eating! Even though you may want to skip meals and fit perfectly into your wedding gown, don’t do it! According to Heidi Skolnick, a nutritionist and consultant to the School of American Ballet, “It isn’t a good idea to go into the big day feeling depleted. There’s so much going on and so much stress, you want to make sure your physiology is working for you.” Think of food as the “energy” that will guide and help you through your day. Stay clear from spicy, high fat or sugar content, suggest Skolnick. Skolnick recommends simple food s that will digest easily. Try oatmeal, fruit, sliced turkey sandwich, soup, grilled chicken, fish, salad and wraps. Stick with meals you know and love. Don’t try any foods for the first time on your wedding day, just in case. Drink plenty of water and begin this before the day!
